Build-Your-Own Derby Car Workshops!

One of the goals of the annual Brisbane Derby is to have families work together on building and
racing their own derby cars. We recognize that the task of building a derby car may be daunting
to some and we don’t want that to restrict participation. Therefore, we will be hosting three
workshops to aid you in the construction process. Local handyman extraordinaire Dan “Can Do” Sorrentino to the rescue! Dan
will not be building your derby car for you, but rather he will have power saws, hammers, and other necessary tools available
for parents and kids to use. He will provide advice, support, and direction while you build your own derby car. The one-time fee
covers all 3 workshops. Pre-registration is required. For more information, or to register, contact Steve Beaty at 415-508-2144.
Fee: Workshops are free to registered Derby participants | Location: Community Park Gazebo @ Old County Road
Dates: Saturdays, August 19, 26, & September 16 | Times: 11:00am to 3:00pm.
